Do you like your Star Trek live? Well this weekend (and others in July and August) you will have your chance to check out some live Star Trek shows, if you happen to live in New York, Oregon, or Minnesota. Details on the shows below.

New York’s "Start Trekkin" improv group has reached the end if their 5 year mission. On Friday July 1st they will hold their final show and they promise to be "pulling out all the stops!" More info at Start Trekkin Facebook Page.

Fridays & Saturdays in July – Portland, OR – USS Improvise: The Musical

Improvised musical episodes based the original Star Trek with costumes, music and sound effects. See your favorite characters as you have never seen them before. Want to see Captain Kirk sing a love duet with an alien princess or Scotty sing a song about the joys of transporter travel?

Saturdays in July & August – Minneapolis, MN – Star Trek: The Next Improvisation

I watched Trek in the Park on YouTube…I wanted to go to Oregon so badly after that! But last year my dad and I took a trip there during Thanksgiving….and we both sort of swore we would never travel there again.

So, YouTube people, I am relying on YOU to take your camcorders and iPhones, and get the performances on video for me…I mean us!

Thanks for the mention! I’m the director of the Minneapolis show (and the voice of the ship’s computer). We’re trying to get the word out that tickets are *free* for our show if you show up dressed in Star Trek costume.
